    José was a pleasure to work with, very professional and punctual. I was a new customer in need of detailing services in a time-crunch. José scheduled me withing two days and worked to get the best look possible out of my 10 year old car. Reasonably priced. My car looks showroom clean. Very satisfied customer.

    Great Job Stay Classy!

    Great Service and my Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT looked as good as new when they were done! Impressed! I've used a couple other mobile services here in San Diego and Stay Classy is #1 for me right now. Other places have been good, but not excellent. Stay Classy = Perfection! They took their time and ensured the Jeep looked great when they were finished. Great communication with me as well. Texted me when they would be at my house and when they were on their way. Professionals, outstanding work, reasonable prices. Thank you!

    Stripped paint all around my passenger side mirror - was definitely not there before they detailed the car

    I am conflicted as I leave this review because I felt that Jose and his assistant were incredibly courteous and professional in the way they spoke to me initially and detailed the front and middle seats of my car, but the beauty they added to my interior was subsequently negated by the damage they did to the paint around the mirrors of my SUV, and their failure to take accountability for the damage they did to my car soured the positivity of their initially pleasant demeanor. I got my car detailed because I'm beginning a job today where I want my clients to feel that the car they're being picked up in looks nice, and the interior of 2/3s of the car certainly feels that way - that said, there's no way my clients are going to miss the ugly swathes of stripped paint around the mirrors which were left in the wake of the detailing job (pictures attached below). I paid $175 to have this service done - a high price which I was willing to budget as a business expense - but the damage they did to the paint around my mirrors is going to cost me at least $300-400 to fix, and now my car will look even worse to my clients than it would have before the detailing job, so honestly I can't say that I was satisfied with my experience with Stay Classy Automotive Detailing because whatever benefits I received from the $175 detailing job are now completely offset by the expensive detail paint job I will need to fix the areas around my mirrors. Furthermore, I didn't appreciate the fact that they denied responsibility for stripping the paint on my mirrors when I confronted them about it afterwards, essentially leaving me no choice but to proceed to post a review about it and warn others lest the same damage be done to their cars and the work not even being comped afterwards to offset some of the damage. Finally, while it could be relatively standard within the expensive world of auto detailing, they didn't even attempt to remove the stains from the mat in the trunk of my car, explaining after the fact that such a service would come at an additional cost. I'm not sure why I'd need to pay more than $175 to have a detail job that includes the full interior of my car being thoroughly cleaned, but apparently that's what you'll have to do if you want to get more than the front and middle seats of your car detailed at Stay Classy. To be honest, in the wake of the experience I'd have to say the only thing that feels "classy" about it is the expensive cost that I paid to get half the amount of work they would have done for me anywhere slightly less "classy" - and you'd best believe that in the future I will be taking my business to a less "classy" place that will actually finish the ~$200 job, and will do it without causing hundreds of dollars worth of damage to my paint job.

    Jose worked on a full detailing job on my 2007 Honda Accord. His work Definitely has the "WOW factor" as he left my car looking brand new!! Hands down the best cleaning my car has ever received. Jose is very friendly and professional and the fact that he uses an almost waterless cleaning technique is a big plus as I am an environmentalist. I highly recommend this service for all your car cleaning needs!

    Jose did a waterless car wash and wax and the truck came out great. Jose does an awesome job and is very detail oriented. Thanks Jose!

When I purchased a new car, I immediately came back for a full front PPF and ceramic coating package. I was quoted a 2-day turnaround and promised regular updates, but communication quickly became inconsistent. After multiple delays, excuses, and missed deadlines, responsibility for my vehicle was passed between employees without clear communication. I was eventually offered a complimentary full-body PPF for the inconvenience, but despite agreeing on several deadlines, the work was never completed. One employee completely stopped responding to my calls and texts, and I later found out he was no longer with the company without my knowledge. At this point, my vehicle still does not have the promised PPF installed, the interior ceramic coating was never done, and the exterior ceramic coating wasn't even completed properly. The lack of communication, accountability, and professionalism throughout this process has completely destroyed my trust in the company. I'm honestly at a loss for words. UPDATE: Danny eventually got back in contact with me and finally completed the PPF work on my vehicle. Unfortunately, the quality of the install was terrible. I brought the car to multiple reputable PPF shops for inspection and received the same feedback from every single one. Several shops told me it was one of the worst PPF installations they had seen. They also pointed out that my clear coat is now lifting, and warned me that removing the PPF from my bumper will very likely peel the paint completely off, meaning I may now need to have my bumper repainted. After everything I went through with the delays, broken promises, lack of communication, and being completely ghosted, I'm now potentially dealing with paint damage caused by the improper installation itself. I have completely lost trust in this company and am extremely disappointed with how this entire situation was handled. I asked for a refund and he is purposely ignoring my messages, I don't think he realizes that I can see when he reads my messages. DO NOT BRING YOUR CAR TO THIS COMPANY PLEASE!!!

Where things started to slip was on the pickup side. I was told the car was ready, but still ended up waiting about 30-40 minutes before actually getting it. At checkout, I was also surprised to see a tip screen with suggested amounts that felt pretty high given the service. I ended up leaving a small tip, but the experience itself didn't really match that level of expectation. I also would have appreciated a quick walkthrough of the work that was done--especially at that price point--but it was more of a quick handoff of the keys. I came back for the 10-day follow-up and made a point to ask about timing ahead of time. I was told it would take about an hour. I arrived early, but after an hour the car hadn't been touched yet, and there wasn't any update unless I asked. That part was frustrating. So, they ended up rushing my 10-day follow-up inspection. Gave the car a quick rinse and handed me the keys. What was the point of driving down from Carlsbad??? Over 3 hours wasted. For comparison, I had a great experience at their Kearny Mesa location previously, so I know what they're capable of. This location is stretched thin, which seemed to impact communication and overall service. I was not the only customer in the lobby feeling this way. Given the type of clientele they're working with and the pricing, I was expecting a bit more consistency and attention to detail. Their follow-up consisted of more sales pitches of coupons for services I already had done. Would have been nice to have the discounts PRIOR to the work! I planned on using the wash program and mentioned to Jasmine my poor service experience. Think there was follow-up? Nada. So, thumbs "kind of" up for Ceramic Pro but thumbs down for this location. Overall, I think the company itself does good work, and have used the Kearny Mesa location in the past several times with excellent success!! I would not choose this location again.

There are too many other choices in San Diego County and this one needs to be avoided. It all starts with first impressions as a new customer. Even though the online booking time was convenient, the manager, Alex, clearly does not care about your business. There is a "comments" box in the online booking process that was completely ignored with my question. The detailer was late to my appointment. Time means money and they don't care about wasting your time. The work vehicle was trashed when it showed up. Dents all over the place, door molding hanging outside the door. Invest some money and take all those dents out. It gives a bad look like they don't care. Before the work was started I was verbally told it would be an extra $45 for all of the work with some stubborn stains. Okay I understood, the car's interior was quite dirty. After working four hours on the car, the stains are still there. None of the ones on the seats and the carpet floor were removed. He tried was his answer and then asked me how long have I had the car. How is that relevant for the work performed? It is none of their business. Training is an issue obviously. On their website they claim "superior customer experience." Not so much. "Real time updates" during the four hours did not happen once. "Follow up care with maintenance recommendations" was non existent. The recommendations given was to keep the windows down because it still was wet inside. They couldn't dry the vehicle first? Yeah keep the windows down so all the dust flies in - so smart of them. At the end of the appointment I requested an invoice for their work. No was their answer but if you pay by credit card and pay the 4%+ surcharge, we can do it for you. What? That makes no sense. Their other payment options are cash, Venmo or Zelle. For a company that is detailer certified I am disappointed. Yes they are certified - certified waste of time. Take your business elsewhere.
